I just got back from Japan and think this is an awesome gallery. Great street photography capturing every day moments to really bring a sense of atmosphere and feeling. This goes far far beyond cliche and ends up taking the viewer on a compelling, thought provoking and addictive tour of this great city .Thoroughly enjoyed myself. Voted

very good
Guest 19-Mar-2006 05:21
Wow HL! You have definitely captured a side of Tokyo that I missed when I was there in January this year! I took abt 10 shots in total, for lack of time after work hours... I see I have missed out much during the day!
Well done, very interesting gallery.
EK Chua 16-Mar-2006 03:42

Nice to view your new addition. Once again you've done an excellent job in capturing the people and culture of a great city. Full of life. Very well seen. The mood and tone are right. Keep posting!

In one word: excellent. I agree with the other poster. This is one the best Tokyo galleries.
The compositions are strong and reflect this amazing city. The black and white and desaturated colors fit perfect.
Congrats!
Tom Gordon 30-Apr-2005 15:29
This is the best view I've ever gotten of Tokyo. Your compostions are all very strong with tension in every shot. The tones and contrast really contribute to making this better than others too. When it comes to perfecting your images, put your time into the files you print. The web has too many variables to worry about perfecting it here.

Keep up the great work!
Emil 23-Nov-2004 01:59
I also agree with A Passerby. The images are not dim but in high contrast. Sevres and Merck, I think the pics with high contrast can capture the mood which a normal exposured can't. Well done H.L. However, it will probaby avoid the wrong impressions of too 'dim' by using plain backgrounds or more outstanding subjects.
strangely 21-Nov-2004 16:24
I agree, i think the tone you have suits the images perfectly...we are drawn to the light, and these pictures capture just that! Me like!!! :)
a passerby 21-Nov-2004 16:08
I disagree... in all of the images, the whites are very white and the darks are very dark... it's that contrast that gives these images personality and life. Your subjects and framing are all excellent, and maybe you need to adjust your monitor if they're too dark.
sevres babylone 21-Nov-2004 16:07
It IS dim and dark at night, and your pictures capture that. You can play around with exposure compensation and ISO, but I think you are on the right track.
H.L.Tam 21-Nov-2004 15:19
Hi Merck,
Thanks for your kind comment. As most of the pictures are captured at night without the flash, they are dim and dark. Next time, I will try some exposure compensation or with higher ISO.
Best Regards!
